    Our wine tasting included a choice of five different wines to taste. Our wine server was great, she was very pleasant, although we didn't get the detailed and educational spiel about this particular winery, which stood out since we had visited others earlier that day, and they took the time to share a little bit about their winery's history. The other thing that was odd for us was that we only got one wine glass, and we had to finish all of the wine before they poured the next tasting. Other vineyards gave us multiple glasses so I don't know if they ran out of glasses, but it felt weird that we kinda rushed to drink the wine so that we could try the next one. Felt less like a wine tasting and more like I was just at a bar.

    Wine tasting with a view.

    Amazing views, fantastic service and delicious wines! We had a wonderful time here just relaxing in the patio.

    We had friends in town and added Bouchaine as a stop to our day in wine country. We were so happy we did! The property is very beautiful with both a cute garden or a really nice terrace. We were seated in the Garden as it is also dog friendly and had plenty of shade, chairs etc. The wines themselves were also very good. The standout was the PInot Blanc but what was more impressive was Gigi, our host. She had the right balance of knowledge, engagement but also letting us enjoy the wine. She was funny, and also had some great recommendations for our next trips up to Sonoma and Napa. We joined and are excited to be members of Bouchaine and cannot wait for our first shipment!

    Second stop on our wine outing brought our party to the beautiful grounds of Bouchaine. We did the Terrace Tasting which is normally $75 per person, but paid $50 each with the Priority Wine Pass. We highly enjoyed the views from the outside patio and saw a few different kinds of birds. We were not impressed by the service as it was difficult to make reservations over the phone which should have clued us in on what to expect. When we got there, we overheard a female employee say she was not scheduled to handle a larger group referring to our party of 5. We were given to another sommelier who was also abrasive. Service was lacking and wine was just mediocre. I really wanted to love this place, but found my experience here lackluster.

    Stunning views and amazing staff! We did the 4 wine tasting on a weekday and had a wonderful time chatting with Karen, who meticulously explained the origin of every wine we tried. We had originally booked for the garden but were automatically upgraded to the terrace since the garden was closed. Loveddd how private it felt, and even though the space was a bit smaller than I had imagined from pictures, the view was still breathtaking! We ended up going home with a bottle of the Las Brisas Pinot Blanc-- super tasty. A great way to spend an afternoon and not at all far from Napa proper!

    Wow! A must see in Napa! Not only are their wines wonderful their service and ambiance make for a magnificent experience! This was the terrace tasting and I think it's worth every penny! When booking a winery like this I don't think you can go wrong in any of the tastings!

    We went to this winery on a Monday, because it was on our way out of town and reservations were not necessary. A windy road to get there, which actually wasn't too far away. We went into the smaller tasting room because the fee seemed less, but they were closed and we were directed up the hill. We hadn't even noticed the beautiful architecture of the main winery! We went into and discovered the tasting was fairly price, but we could taste different wines from each other so we decided to go for it. We were seated outside, on comfy couches with a beautiful view. Our server was fantastic...fun and very informative. It turned out that the wines were absolutely delicious!! So we decided to join their wine club, which we discovered is the only way to purchase their wines. Plus, by joining, our tasting fee was waived. Win win! We also learned that you can gift a tasting to several friends/family in the course of a year which is fantastic because we have good friends who live in the area and had never tried their wines. I wished we lived closer (we are in Pasadena) because they have tastings with a birds of prey show. Will definitely check that out next time. This was a wonderful find, and we are looking forward to our next visit.

    The views are beautiful here! We enjoyed all the wines we tasted and Mark was awesome! We will be back for sure!

    Bouchaine was one of our favorite Napa area winery experiences from the architecture to the wine itself. The great thing about Bouchaine is that it is one of (if not THE) closest wineries to downtown San Fran, so it's perfect for a day trip. We used the Priority Wine Pass to get a discount on our tasting which was advertised as choosing 5 wines to taste. However, upon arrival they immediately poured us their cheapest Rose (..we are not Rose All Day people..) and counted it as one of our 5 tastings! So be aware that, according to the booking, YOU get to choose your 5 wines to taste! Additionally, be upfront with your guide about what kind of experience you'd like or expect. What I mean by that is our guide was very chatty about their personal life - when we were there to learn about the wine and spend some quality family time together with our group. But instead - learned a LOT about our guide and his life. Which I found very odd. Maybe that's because I'm from the East Coast, but so was he. Would still go again though because the wine is that delicious and property is that beautiful! Don't forget to get the Pinot noir chocolate covered cherries on your way out!

    Happy hubby

    A gem, not to be missed. A feeling of traveling to Europe in your own Napa back yard. The scenery was exquisite, service fabulous, wines stand out exceptionally, and a beautiful place to hang. Try the wine tasting on the terrace, you'll thank me afterwards or even during. Stephanie The Stephanie Herman Show

    We had an amazing time on our garden tour at Bouchaine! The winery was beautiful, modern, and accommodated dogs! Our tour guide, Lisa, was great and went into a lot of detail on the wines! We learned a ton about their different Pinot Noir clones used at the vineyard, which were my favorite wines we tasted. The tour had 4 tastings but we were able to try 2 more wines. Look forward to visiting again!

    We always try to add one or two new wineries to our tasting adventures during our stay, and last September Bouchaine Vineyards' Garden Tasting was one of them, and we were not disappointed. Fast forward to June 2025 where we reserved a Terrace Tasting hosted by Marija. First, the terrace is the perfect place to taste their wonderful selections of wine (which imo has something for everyone). Pair that with Marija's European charm and vast wine/food knowledge made it worth the visit. Here we are again in Napa to celebrate my husband's birthday, and our stay would not have been complete without seeing Bouchaine and Marija during our stay. Not sure the next time we'll be back to Napa, but I know whenever it is it will definitely include a stop here!!

    We enjoyed our tasting on the patio overlooking the estate. Service was friendly and attentive. Wine was light and easy to drink and enjoy. The chocolate pairing was yummy too.
